科技根本上源自科學研究,我們最好是探討中國的科學在怎樣的土壤上發展。許多人都認為中國在‘自然科學’和‘社會科學’的水準都一樣不及西方世界。當然我一定會排除‘我們的智力不及西方人’的理由。科學精神當然是一個重要原因,這個大家已經耳熟能詳。
我嘗試說出另一個理由,中國人在建構他們的世界觀時,恰恰與西方人相反,因而不能如別人世界觀裡的因子有接受變更的動力。
首先科學精神是容許創出新觀念、新發現等等,推翻以前舊的一切,即是,西方世界其實默認這一刻的世界並不完美,並不全知全能,應當容許變更,最重要是沒有特定由哪個人/權力去改變世界,想變,就要在知識的基礎上進行。
但中國人習慣接受超穩定的社會,當然超穩定社會未必等如阻止變更,尤其是對大家有利的變更,但是超穩定社會的人,一定是惰性重的人,他們會覺得現狀此刻沒有甚麼不對勁,接受權威安排沒有不對勁,他們也會相信,世事按照舊路軌運行才合乎情理。
科學是人類在好奇、求知之下產生,在這個探索過程中,甚至會被認為是無聊,所以這種行為絕不會在惰性重的社會出現。
